Why Zune Beats the iPod... Seriously

Posted by Adam Krebs in "Zune Talk" @ 12:00 AM

"Okay, we know that the Zune doesn’t beat the iPod where it matters (sales) so this is sort of like BetaMax/VHS but the Zune really is an increasingly impressive device. I’m beginning to wonder if it’ll become the cult device that is sort of cooler than the iPod but not as popular. Sound familiar?"

Jeff Blankenburg shares his thoughts on why the Zune is better than the iPod (seriously) and they're all important. He's got all the usual suspects (Zune Pass, FM radio, wireless sharing and syncing) but also mentions a few others, like Zune Originals, the consistently updated firmware, and how anyone can make games for their Zunes. Click through to see each of these points discussed in depth, and maybe pass it on to your "iPod owning uncle" at Christmastime.

"Grammar Girl provides short, friendly tips to improve your writing. Covering the grammar rules and word choice guidelines that can confound even the best writers, Grammar Girl makes complex grammar questions simple with memory tricks to help you recall and apply those troublesome grammar rules. Whether English is your first language or second language, Grammar Girl’s punctuation, style, and business tips will make you a better and more successful writer.

I figured I would give you guys a break from the technology podcasts for a week and give you something that will be handy down the road. This weeks podcast, "Grammar Girl's Quick and Dirty Tips for Better Writing" is a short and sweet podcast which crams a 5 minute or less grammar lesson into your brain once a week. I have been listening to Grammar Girl off and on for a while now and have always found it to be pretty enjoyable. If you are looking for a new podcast to add to your Zune, I would suggest giving a listen to Grammar girl.
